The group left their home and went to the Fantasy Amusement Park. They wandered around there for two hours. Li Zhi saw that it was almost time. It would take several more hours to get to the sea area of Limei Island that Yu Feier had mentioned. It would be dark by then, and they could find an opportunity to release Yu Feier back into the sea.
The group had dinner on the boat and then set off for Le Mei Island. As soon as they arrived in the waters around Le Mei Island, Li Zhiyi took out a glass bottle from his bundle.
"Yu Feier has arrived at your house. You should go home now, we should go back too."
Yu Feier seemed very excited, her eyes blinking like a lively little blue elf as she looked at her. "Daoist Master, you can't leave now. Come home with me. My father knows that you saved me, and he will definitely repay you."
Li Zhi was puzzled. What did it mean that they couldn't leave? She lifted the small curtain of the cabin and saw that the ship was sailing on the seabed, but no one felt any lack of oxygen.
"Since that's the case, then go and see your father."
Gu Nianzhi rushed in at this moment: "Sister-in-law, something bad has happened! My brother said something is wrong with our ship. Please come out and take a look."
Li Zhiyi glanced at Yu Feier on the ground; she was still growing.
At this moment, Gu Nianzhi also saw Yu Feier. She was so frightened that she covered her mouth and walked to Li Zhiyi's side. Her finger trembled as she pointed at Yu Feier and said, "Sister-in-law, sister-in-law, did you see this monster? She, she can grow bigger, and she has a tail. Could she be a mermaid?"
As she spoke, Gu Nianzhi's fear and terror turned into shock and curiosity. She took the initiative to step forward, wanting to touch the beautiful mermaid.
Li Zhiyi didn't stop her. Gu Nianzhi turned around happily and said to Li Zhiyi, "Sister-in-law, so there really are mermaids in the world! This isn't a legend, it's real! I'm going to take a picture of it; I'm sure I can get a Guinness World Record." As she spoke, she took out her phone, only to find that it was frozen and wouldn't turn on no matter what she did.
"My phone is broken. Sister-in-law, can I borrow your phone?"
The door was suddenly pulled open, and Gu Siye walked in. "Nianzhi, what are you doing?" He hadn't sent his sister to find Li Zhiyi; something was very wrong outside, yet she was fiddling with something.
"Brother, brother, look! A mermaid! It's a real mermaid!" Gu Nianzhi was still in shock.
Gu Siye had met Yu Feier last night and wasn't surprised. "Miss Li, come out for a moment, I have something to tell you."
"I know what you're going to say. Our ship is currently sailing on the seabed. It's alright. We're taking Yu Fei'er home. Her family wants to meet us."
This news left Gu Siye speechless. Gu Nianzhi thought for a moment before speaking incredulously, "Sister-in-law, you said this mermaid is named Yu Feier? And you want to take her home? She's a fish, can't she just jump into the sea and go home?"
“Miss, you don’t know this, but I was injured in the spine by humans and I can’t swim freely in the water right now. There are many other species in this sea, and they might have bad intentions if they see that I am injured. That’s why the Taoist priest kindly sent me home.”
"You can talk? You've really become a spirit?" Gu Nianzhi was too surprised and kept staring at Yu Feier. Her body was red all over and she was very big and long, but she had a head of silver-white hair, which made her look like she was glowing. She was really too beautiful.
"Yes, I can not only talk, but if I hadn't been injured, I could also transform into human form. How could I be like this now, neither human nor fish?" Yu Feier said helplessly, thinking about how heartbroken her brothers would be to see her like this!
At this moment, everyone saw that Gu Nianzhi and Gu Siye were inside the cabin and not coming out, so they all came in and were very curious about the fish-headed, fish-tailed Fei'er in front of them.
"Miss Li, something's wrong with our ship. It seems like we're sailing on the seabed." Although Chen Zhihe was curious, he didn't forget to get down to business.
Gu Nianzhi explained to everyone that this was her sister-in-law taking the mermaid home. Everyone was looking at the mermaid in front of them, talking and sighing.
At this moment, three men walked in from outside. The men were all very handsome and had perfect body proportions. When they saw their sister looking like this, they were shocked.
The tall, imposing man immediately abandoned all pretense of composure and hugged his sister, crying out, "Fei'er, Fei'er, who hurt you like this?"
One of the men immediately pointed his sword at Fu Yanche: "Did he hurt you? I will avenge you."
"Hey, we're good people! We're the ones who escorted your sister back! Let me go!"
"Brother, you've misunderstood. This Taoist priest is my savior. If it weren't for him, I would be someone else's meal by now!"
Hearing his sister say this, Yu Sheng reluctantly released Fu Yanche. Fu Yanche was extremely annoyed. There were several people in the room. How did this person know that he had hurt his sister? Did he think he was easy to bully?
The misunderstanding was cleared up, and everyone followed a fish that shone with golden light all over its body, which led the way for them.
The more they walked, the more amazing it seemed. The creatures in the sea were so diverse and bizarre. Only after arriving here did they realize how ignorant they had been.
Wherever you go, you'll find colorful little trinkets shining brightly, and the colorful seashells will make beautiful sounds that bring joy to your heart.
After passing through several winding corridors, the group finally arrived at the main hall of the aquatic tribe chief. There, sitting on a high seat, was a middle-aged man dressed in a silver-white Taoist robe, with many rare and precious treasures adorning his head and neck.
A sea turtle standing nearby, upon hearing that its young lady had experienced such a terrifying ordeal, angrily exclaimed, "These damned humans! How can they be so insatiable? We provide them with countless offspring every day for their use, and yet they still want to invade our lair and harm our young lady!"
"Yes, Chieftain! These mortals are outrageous! They're truly despicable!" The elders of the Fish Clan all felt indignant on behalf of their young lady!
"Father, I beg you to avenge my sister!"
“I will also go to my father. I will definitely tear that human who hurt my sister to pieces.”
It was only then that everyone realized that Yu Fei'er's father was the patriarch of a clan.
